THE NEW YORKER pianist, who will be heard doing many things this season,. He has the mis- fortune of coming directly after two such violent successes as Vladimir Hor- owitz and J osé Iturbi, but from the no- tions of those who have heard Zecchi in Europe, I gather that he has a manner of his own. If you like to look for un trumpeted possibilities, you may care to listen to Sidney Sukoenig, a young New Yorker who has been playing the piano in Eu- rope and who will be brought for- ward emphatically in the course of the year. T HE only new conductor so far announced is Erich Kleiber, whu starts the Philharmonic-Symphony sea- son. The reports on his activities are conflicting. He seems to be a Mozart specialist, a champion of the moderns, a Straussian, and a good many other things. Whatever he is, he probifbly will not be dull-which, in itself, is a considerable attribute. I have heard a few recordings of Kleiber, and although the music which he directed hardly served to demon- strate his scope, it was plain that he " b " d . . was a oss can uctor-a mUSICIan with individual ideas and a good deal of force in impressing them on his men. His tempi, from the discs to which I listened, seem to þe alert, and he en- joys smart contrasts in color. Ap- parently, we are to have with us a conductor who will keep things going, but if you ask whether he can keep things going in the direction of Carnegie Hall, I must invite you to make your own forecast. -R.
